Change disk size VxVM 3.5 (different disk sizes in a mirror)

Hi, I need to change the size of 14 of my disks that are in one dg, most of
these disks are 34.17GB but some are 33.6GB they are newer versions of the
same disk so any replacements will be 33.6GB.
I'm creating a mirrored continuous volume with these 14 disks across a
controller (7 on one controller 7 on there other).
What would be the best way to insure that I can replace any of the 34.17GB
disks with the newer 33.6GB disks??

Thanks very much,
Adam

Evacuate the logical volumes on that disk to another
bring disk out of dg and veritas contral
Put another disk in and bring back the lg's that were evacuated.

Do you think you could explain this a little better??
